Chicago Justice: Lorraine Toussaint to Resurrect Law & Order Character

by Jessica Pena, March 21, 2016

Chicago Justice is getting some Law & Order. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Lorraine Toussaint will reprise her Law & Order role for the upcoming NBC drama pilot.

Chicago Justice is part of Dick Wolf’s Chicago franchise, which includes Chicago P.D., Chicago Fire, and Chicago Med.

Toussaint, who currently stars on FOX’s Rosewood, played defense attorney Shambala Green during the early seasons of Law & Order. She last appeared on the series in 2003.

On Chicago Justice, she joins other cast members Carl Weathers, Philip Winchester, Nazneen Contractor, and Joelle Carter as a guest star. The series will debut as a backdoor pilot during an upcoming episode of Chicago P.D.

What do you think? Did you watch Toussaint on Law & Order? Do you watch NBC’s Chicago series? Will you watch Chicago Justice?

I’m glad Carl Weathers has a regular job again, but I will miss him on COLONY. I know he escaped from the city in the second to last episode, but I thought he might be back. I hope this works out for him.
